WWE signs broadcast network TV deal

WWE announced a new TV show for the Ion Network called WWE Main Event. The weekly show will air on Wednesday nights at 8 p.m.

The show will largely fill the broadcast gap taken when Superstars was canceled last year by WGN and NXT was canceled by Syfy.

The show debuts on 10/3. It'll be a "B" show similar to Superstars. With NXT no longer being taped on Tuesdays, the most likely scenario is that either Superstars or Main Event will be taped before Raw on Monday, and the other show will be taped before Smackdown on Tuesday.
